Nokia's mobile era has now officially come to an end. One day, books will be written about the rise and fall of one of the greatest mobile technology companies of all time - one that played an instrumental role in the development and spread of the mobile phone, and the one company that put a phone in every corner of the world, in every person's hands - whether they were rich or poor. This is a sad day.

Nokia released more intuitive products in the end than the last 5 years. I have the Nokia 2520 and 1020, the only two gadgets that I really only use right night. I have a MacBook, ChromeBook, Android tablet and a PC but my two Nokia's as so good that I have no need for anything else.

I used nothing but Nokia Communicators for the longest time. Even when the iPhone was released I stuck with a Communicator. The 9300 was such a fantastic phone that I felt it's missing presence for years even after I finally went with a Blackberry. Though my Motorola Droid was also a great phone, still waiting for a decent Clamshell to arise from the ashes of what once was.
